Solution

The correct option is D
Thrombocyte

Blood corpuscles are of three types, i.e., RBCs, WBCs and thrombocytes. Red blood cells are most abundant and responsible for oxygen and $C O_{2}$ transport. White blood corpuscles are of two types, i.e. granulocytes (eosinophil, basophils and neutrophils) and agranulocytes (i.e., lymphocytes and monocytes). Lymphocytes produce antibodies, eosinophils are non – phagocytic and basophils release, heparin, histamine and serotonin. Thrombocytes are platelets and help in blood clotting.
